Re: Technology in Curriculum Integration

Over the last 8 years, we have had an Educational Technology Department
with three full-time faculty to support students (about 1070), teachers,
curriculum, vision, etc. We have a separate Technology Information
Services department to support hardware, software and the network. We
have found this to be an excellent model for support.=20

Please contact me if you have any questions.

Hi Allyn,

We're a PK-12 school in our eighth year of a 1:1 program that begins in
grade 5. We have three full-time academic tech specialists, one in each
division (LS, MS, US), whose responsibilities include teaching computer
skills/science courses and working with faculty to integrate technology
into their classes.

Let me know if you have any questions or want more details.

Bill
